here is latin's pearl keyboard that i packed into my theme as i update it...

lookin good.. cant wait to update the HTC IME with the clear keybaord that was posted...

then i can switch between the two on 1 build
[G1 Themes and Wallpapers] LatinSilEighty:
SSSSSUUUUUUUUUWEEEEEEET lol looks good bro. hey i pm'd you with a q? whenever you get a chance
[G1 Themes and Wallpapers] beagz:
Glad you like them.

1st quick steps.

Start with largest size key sapphire_qwe_function keys work best.

Edit to satisfaction with Paint.net

You can use the same keys inverted for keys down or for standard keys

(EXAMPLE) sapphire_qwe_function_keys_up.9.png is dark normally due to white image (could be changed). Copy that same image as sapphire_qwe_keys_dn.9.png if desired (or use something different) same key can also be used for sapphire_land_keys_dn.9.png and sapphire_land_function_keys_up.9.png as well as sapphire_land_keys_go_bg_up.9.png and sapphire_keys_go_bg_dn.9.png

Already you have 6 keys completed.

use your sapphire_qwe_function_keys_dn.9.png for all the inverse keys of those just listed

Now you have 12 keys

Just work on the backgrounds (2 files)

And then the 2 split keys (4 files) which can be done by editing only 2 files and then copying the qwe to use as land keys

use eclipse to repack the .9 files

open the HTC_IME.apk using 7-zip file manager and in the other window open the .apk you made with eclipse

copy your files into the IME and then exit back out of 7-zip

re-sign

push to /system/app

test on phone

:)

all set.

link ready for black border keys. (I will do white border tomorrow if all goes well)

don't forget if packing in a theme to include the libt9.so that goes into /system/lib and the clicker.apk that goes into /system/app
[G1 Themes and Wallpapers] beagz:
flat rounded buttons instead of chromed.

[G1 Themes and Wallpapers] Beast84:
WOW! Looks amazing! Do these changes also show through with the other keyboards that come packed in HTC_IME, like the T9? Or are those additional edits that need to be made?
[G1 Themes and Wallpapers] doubleokneegro:
you said "don't forget if packing in a theme to include the libt9.so that goes into /system/bin and the clicker.apk that goes into /system/app"

i believe you mean the lint9.so goes to /system/lib/ thats just from Haykuro's instructions... plus figured libraries and libraries kinda go together
[G1 Themes and Wallpapers] beagz:
@doubleokneegro:

yes, sorry goes into system/lib

nice catch.

@beast: yes they show up in the other keyboards. only the symbol up/dn key shown on the compact keyboards needs changing.

no disrespect to J&B who started this keyboard thread.. :-)
[G1 Themes and Wallpapers] diaztradeinc:
None taken :D I for one love progress, keep them coming guys!
[G1 Themes and Wallpapers] xile6:
Is it to much if i ask for a print out. :p

Like what files to edit and what does what? Im know how to theme just dont know what file are for the keyboard.

i.e.

I know that the main files are in framework/framework-res.apk/drawable/ btn_keyboard_key*

but what are the ones for background, the highlight, the zoom (when you press ona key)
[G1 Themes and Wallpapers] fairymaru:
Hey beagz I send you a pm with the samples of color in a zip file hope this works.

Thanks in advance
[G1 Themes and Wallpapers] beagz:
Thanks to JrBourque & Diaztradeinc for inspiration to make this version of the keyboard. It was his idea and I just made it for the HTC_IME keyboard for them but was given permission to make it public so here it is.

[G1 Themes and Wallpapers] LatinSilEighty:
AAAWWWW look at all the little Androids lol j/k didnt mean to sound Ghey. thats awsome great idea. Ima make one with little Apples in each key lol j/k
[G1 Themes and Wallpapers] doubleokneegro:
if nobody helped you out yet... check maybe the first 6-8 pages... or post #51 ish... im really not sure, but i laid out the files you need to edit for the android keyboard... they are in the framework.res.apk/res/drawable - something like ALL btn_keyboard, etc (6 i think) and then keyboard background.png (is the sides, where there is blank space on the right n left
[G1 Themes and Wallpapers] doubleokneegro:
also the PRESSED, NORMAL, ON/OFF are the difference in the keyboard variations for exile...

i just look at the phone, press a button n find that same icon and make a mental note... or write **** down...

a big "android genome" project would be great.. but totally unnnecessary with the 9-10-11 builds.. and counting

[G1 Themes and Wallpapers] shaneaus:
I have read almost every post in this thread - So, please don't flame me if this question has been answered.

I don't have the time to build a rom to integrate these VK's into. Is there a way they can be packaged into a .apk like the original VK's?

Every time I install a new/updated ROM I install the VK of my choice - one of the HTC_IME.apks.

I really want that new Gloss Blue VK... But, it includes the files in a .zip - but, I don't know how to install all the files individually (which I would be willing to do if someone can send me a PM with the instructions) and don't have the time/knowledge to open up a ROM, install all of the files, re-pack/re-sign the ROM.

Can someone advise on how to pack these themed VK's into .apk's to make us that aren't devs able to install them like the originals?

Thanks in advance for any advice.

Shane
[G1 Themes and Wallpapers] beagz:
Shane:

You need to copy the .so file into system/lib

cp *yourfolder*/*.so system/lib

Then the clicker.apk and HTC_IME.apk go into system/app

cp *yourfolder*/*.apk system/app

Reboot and all is well
[G1 Themes and Wallpapers] beagz:
Not sure about the better keyboard stuff. I haven't played with those yet.
[G1 Themes and Wallpapers] shaneaus:
@beagz

The theme I was hoping to install was the GlossBlue theme (similar to the green Android button them pics posted earlier). I opened the zipped file and there were only *.9.png files included.

I have the HTC_IME installed on my phone. I just need to be able to apply the cool theme to the file.

I'm hoping there is a script that I can run that will apply the *.9.png files to HTC_IME.apk that is installed on the phone.

Or, that some of the theme devs here can package their themes up with the actual keyboard so we can just install the new themed VK like any other .apk file.

Thanks for the help!

edit: Nevermind, I answered my own question by reading the thread again. Seems the only way to have an easy update is for someone to figure out how to make an update.zip file for the desired VK change.
[G1 Themes and Wallpapers] beagz:
yes, if using the vk that comes with the OS (or theme) it's files are located in the framework-res.apk. Any changes need to be done by update (similar to installing a theme).

[G1 Themes and Wallpapers] doubleokneegro:
anybody got a keyboard they'd like to create or point me in the direction of for this rosie clock widget im working on
[G1 Themes and Wallpapers] beagz:
A second hand? Does it really work. That is too cool.

hmm, might be hard to do the IME keyboard but someone could probably do a pretty awesome Android soft keyboard.

I just don't like messing with the framework file too much. And changing text on the IME apparently requires building from source. I don't have time for that yet.
[G1 Themes and Wallpapers] doubleokneegro:
its actually the clock from hero, its packed as a "night-time clock" but i made edits and changed the hands etc...

the second hand will work if packed in Rosie on a Hero build, just as the original one...

but the second hand wouldnt be there if packed in a JF build, or any non hero w rosie...
[G1 Themes and Wallpapers] fairymaru:
Beagz would you please make a yellow HTC_IME or tell me how to do it...

Sorry to bother....I will like to have all primary colors of VK to when I decide to change theme match it with the vk....I saw there's orange, green, red, blue and lavender (my fave)...if it's not to much to ask I'll appreciate.

Thanks in andvance
[G1 Themes and Wallpapers] beagz:
Like the yellow in the ferrari kb?

Or would you like a different shade?

I was thinking of that color myself. May even sneak in a smiley.
[G1 Themes and Wallpapers] fairymaru:
yes beagz that kind of yellow will be great...

thanks in advance, and for your great work and time.
[G1 Themes and Wallpapers] beagz:
Smiley is ready!

Ok here is the yellow keyboard. I called it smiley. Don't worry only one smiley they are not everywhere.

[G1 Themes and Wallpapers] beagz:

[G1 Themes and Wallpapers] beagz:
So far no help with white text so we are still waiting to be able to do this. Stericson says you need to rebuild from source but I don't have that much time.

Meanwhile here is a nice blue to go with Dude's 1.3 default background.

-cyan 3.4.6 w echo echo theme (it works) added htc cam

-uninstalled htc ime w astro, adb pushed htc ime to /system/app
[G1 Themes and Wallpapers] beagz:
Then just unpack the zip

If using adb:

adb remount

adb push *yourdir*\HTC_IME.apk /system/app

From terminal:

su

mount -o rw,remount -t yaffs2 /dev/block/mtdblock3 /system

cp HTC_IME.apk /system/app

Good question. I really don't know. I do know that there are settings in the xml files for touch settings. The iphone keyboard has more room. I always notice that doing the calibration helps alot.

gesture controls

just out of curiosity i was wondering if it was possible to include gesture controls into the vk's! i mean i have better keyboard and any soft keyboard which both have gesture controls but i was wanting my own personal touch on my vk with the slide right/left for symbols plus the custom keys and what not!! sorry if in wrong area but i figured that if your pimping vk's this would be kinda cool for ppl that dont wanna spend $3 on a keyboard or one with keys that r waaaay to small!
[G1 Themes and Wallpapers] akatragedy:
can i get a blue vk that has the lil androids 4 the ophone theme...great work guys love the black gloss
[G1 Themes and Wallpapers] doubleokneegro:
thanx, sorry ive been testing all of the hero roms... here is a screenshot from my green cy w echo... i guess if you made the gloss black keyboard either highlighted green or add your touch of green to it.... im sure echo echo would add it to their update... or at least wouldnt be opposed

i started doing themes n then tried the keyboards out... can do it, but im messing with these roms, preoccupied with optimizations etc
[G1 Themes and Wallpapers] oreoOozZz:
For some reason, i cant push the gloss_black VK to my phone through ADP and i cant do it thru terminal. Ive done both twice and it still gives me the regular keyboard... any ideas? JF V1.5 CRB21 ADP with HTC Hero theme.

[G1 Themes and Wallpapers] doubleokneegro:
cant say that your orange.zip worked for JFv1.5 for me, i added it to my update and nothing worked, although i packed new battery status icons in my framework drawables and those worked, but not the keyboard difference... still black n white
[G1 Themes and Wallpapers] tubaking182:
blue worked on dude .94 just threw the framework-res in place of the included on his build and flashed
[G1 Themes and Wallpapers] daveid:
People trying to include this in their theme... you realize you need to copy the files btn_keyboard_key*.9.png from the drawables directory into your framework-res.apk/drawables folder, right? I haven't tried it yet on JF 1.5, maybe later this morning I'll give it a go. Well, I tried it sooner than later, works great, heres a screenshot.
[G1 Themes and Wallpapers] Jrbourque:
I'm going to have to go through and test all of them again to make sure that its not the actual apk that's causing the problem. I have the next three days off so i'm going to be making more. If anyone knows where i can get a good photo editor to do the glassy look and gloss etc because my photo editor sucks it would move this along quicker lol and we would be able to make more bad ass vk's for you all
